A team of 10 hard-working amateur runners from the Isle of Man have entered the ASICS Greater Manchester Marathon to raise money for the Diana Princess of Wales Care at Home Trust on 6th April 2014.

With a reputation as one of the friendliest marathons, the team – Dasa Mojzis, Christopher Compston, Terri McCullough, Charmaine Armitage Mitchell, Sue Preskey, Sandra Cardwell, Rachel Lee, Jennifer Houghton, Jade Allcock, Dyana Carrins and Claire Keys – will travel to Manchester with the aim of helping or trying to complete the 26.22 mile relay course around Trafford for the first time.

Chairman of the Trust Ron Spencer said: “We’re delighted by the sterling efforts of the marathon team and send them every best wish and of course huge thanks. We encourage people to support their fundraising via https://www.justgiving.com/Jennifer-Houghton1”
